Its Just Paper Right?

I hate when people say this about money.. It's just paper? Although true and defintiely being a person neither attached to nor defined by it those pieces of "just" paper would help me out a whole lot right now. I have a cell phone bill due, electric bill due,grocery shopping overdue just to name a few. I don't play the lottery but the MTA worker that just won my hat goes off him hopefully he will be smart with his money. Until my big payday comes in I keep smiling and keep hope alive.
